Tariff battle looms over New York iron and Pennsylvanias industries
A proposed tariff alteration seeks to raise duties on iron products to ten percent, affecting coal, dyes, and chemicals used in manufacturing. Democratic lawmakers from New Jersey and Pennsylvania debate rail, coal, and iron policy, with Southern support seen for certain changes. Correspondents note Pennsylvania voters backed Locofocos on iron promises, fearing erosion of the iron industry under Whig leadership, while viewers weigh General James's tariff plan versus no reform.
